My Hamilton/Kershaw for Adam Jones/Justin Uptin?

Postby DLim98 » Wed May 13, 2009 4:30 pm

I was just wondering what you guys thought about this trade? Hamilton hasn't been looking great and on the other side Jones looks amazing this year. I don't know if I really need to pitching and Kershaw has been inconsistent.

I wouldn't do it. While its obviously not Kershaw's time yet, Hamilton has proven he is a stud and the jury is still out on Jones and Upton. They are both going to be studs, but might be raw yet. Jones in particular is due to come down a bit.

What would you think of me offering bj upton as a counter instead of hamilton. So BJ Upton/Kershaw for AJones/JUpton

No chance he'll accept that.

I wouldn't trade hamilton. He's gonna be a stud this year, don't throw away your top draft pick for a couple guys that could have been picked off the waiver this year in most 10 team leagues. Kershaw will probably pull it together by the end of the year too. You can get so much more trade value out of these two players, and I also wouldn't try selling them as you'd be selling low on hamilton and kershaw and buying high on upton and jones.
